S4E10: Mother (Edmund Kemper)

True Crime Horror Story Podcast

They say a boy’s best friend is his mother. Well the weird ones do at least, and perhaps there are none weirder than the subject of our story today. While the neighborhood kids were out playing tag, he was pretending to asphyxiate in the gas chamber or be electrocuted to death… Instead of playing with GI Joes or wrestle buddies, this boy would cut the heads off of his sister’s dolls and pretend to watch their non-existent blood drain onto the living room carpet as a part of juvenile pseudo black magic rituals... This odd little boy would grow up into a hulk of a man, and he would smash his way into the nightmares of college students in Northern California and beyond after word of his atrocious acts spread like wildfire.
This is the story of the Co-Ed Killer…. Edmund Kemper….
